Ears Lowered

When we arrived at Sharkey's, the children's hair salon, and the receptionist said, "Someone with be right with her", you know it's time for a haircut.  I politely said, "She is a he and I realize he's long overdue for this."  Poor thing was so embarrassed.  I felt a little awkward too.

 

 

Here's the final result.

 

And here's his best "cheese" face.

 

I'd say he's all boy again.

I Turned 29...Again

 

Yep, that's right!  I turned 29.  Well, I'm really 31, but my husband is sweet and bought the "29" candles instead.  He knows how to make me feel good. 

It was a pretty ordinary day for me.  I went to work. Same as usual except I got to eat lunch with Micah and Tom.  Micah was out of school for the morning and attending VBS (By the way, he LOVED it).  I scooped him up from church after mass and we met Tom at 5th Street Café, one of our favorites.  I finished out the day at work, but got to enjoy a nice night out on the town with my hubby.  We had a great time!

4th of July

We didn't have an extraordinarily patriotic day, but we did spend some quality family time together.

 

Tom fired up the smoker and smoked a couple of chickens. (I still don't eat beef or pork.)  While that was going, he set up the Slip-N-Slide for the kids.

 

Micah had tons of fun but had a hard time getting over the inflated bump in the middle of the slide.  Silas liked the sprinkler effect the slide made.  He also liked throwing inflated balls at his big brother as he came down the slight hill.

 

 I know this kid is a bit shaggy.  He needs a haircut and I just can't find time to take him that isn't right in the middle of his nap time.  We'll get there one day.

He loves his hand-me-down towel from his cousins.

 

The rest of the day we relaxed on the patio and played with the kids.  Nothing fancy.  Just us being us.  It was good.

 

Hope you had a nice 4th as well!
